A Good Diet Isn't Enough

Of the 17 largest and most technologically advanced countries in the world, the US is ranked dead last in terms of health and longevity by the WHO. The average American is 23 pounds overweight. It is estimated that currently by the age of 65, 77% of Americans are diabetic or pre-diabetic and within the next 6 years, 1 in 2 Americans will have diabetes or be pre-diabetic. Diabetes aka high blood sugar is the #1 cause of blindness, kidney failure and amputations in adults. And it is making us fat…leading to other diseases like high blood pressure, cardiac stress and low immune function to name a few.

Our society consumes more sugar per capita than any society ever known. Processed foods, preservatives and chemicalized foods abound and are becoming more common. Our soil has been depleted because of a lack of crop rotation, pesticides and genetically modified additives.

And because of this soil erosion, primarily due to irresponsible agri-business, improved diet and lifestyle has made restoring our health sufficiently to overcome the long term deterioration causing symptoms and disease, close to impossible. Imagine that 1 pound of spinach in 1945 had the nutritional content of 55 pounds of spinach today. 1 orange in 1950 was equivalent to more than 15 oranges today. And modifications to grains have been irreversibly applied rendering them almost indigestible as evidenced by the myriad of claims of gluten sensitivities.

Our system of health is not working because we are not focused on the right thing…nutritional deficiencies. Like any magic trick, the magician needs a plausible diversion to make the audience believe the trick works. In the case of modern healthcare, the diversion is the miraculous lifesaving procedures and emergency care that keeps our attention off of the real problem…chronic degenerative disease. Treating these diseases with pharmaceutical drugs is like the gorilla who can hit a 400 yard drive 2 feet from the hole and goes to finish the hole only to hit another 400 yard shot…the ball never goes in the hole.

People have been misled into the mistaken belief that suppressing symptoms with pharmaceutical drugs is somehow curing the disease. Nothing could be farther from the truth. In reality, the disease is getting worse.

It is a medical fact that our body is in a constant effort to maintain what we call homeostasis (or stability) and therefore has to adjust to every drug intervention with side effects to compensate. And please don’t confuse side effects with the notion of side dishes. They are not minor, but rather major concerns because they represent not just one, but multiple new diseases and conditions now required by the body to compensate for the intervention. And this is where health spirals in a downward direction.

So why is the US health care system ranked so low by the World Health Organization? After all, we can sew a finger back, transplant a Kidney, and replace the Cochlear fibers in the ear of a 1 month old baby!

Because we have delegated the responsibility for our health and well-being to pharmaceutical intervention without a plan to address the underlying cause of particular declines in health.

This is where an integrative approach to healthcare is so vital. Isolating and treating symptoms together with a strategy to correct the causes.

So in order to solve these problems for real, what needs to be done is to identify what specific organ dysfunction and nutritional deficiencies are at the cause of the problem. What makes this a challenge, is that each person and problem presents a unique set of deficiencies because each person’s life experience and nutritional intake has been unique over the course of their lives.

For example, in the case of sleep difficulty, we need to find out exactly what specific organ dysfunction and nutritional deficiency is at the root of YOUR sleep problem, not your sister’s or neighbor’s.

This requires a competent system of analysis in order to make an accurate determination, and then the right concentration of food source in the right amounts to get the body functioning again.

So to do this, we use a variety of clinically proven tests and testing techniques, make a determination and design a specific program of supplementation needed to fix the problem. This supplementation is in the form of concentrated whole food nutrients that are only available through a physician like myself. We then supervise the administration of these over a treatment course to get the results desired.*

So if you or someone you know someone isn’t sleeping well, is worried about their blood sugar, gets sick with a cold all the time, has chronic fatigue and wants real help, I implore you to send them to have a consultation with me, Michael Forman DOM.

5 weeks ago a friend of mine referred me to Dr. Forman. I was feeling pretty bad. I was feeling a lot of fatigue, I was feeling tired all the time, I was bloated, I couldn’t focus and I was uncomfortable…really, really uncomfortable with everything that was going on with me. It’s been 5 weeks now and I actually feel fabulous. My bloating has gone away and that’s wonderful. I have more focus, which is something I was struggling with a lot for many years, and I have done a lot of things, but not until I came here did I get my focus back, I feel more energy, I’m actually staying up later and feeling really, really good. Overall, I’m super, super happy and super grateful. Thank you.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Forman’s for about 5-6 weeks. When I first came in here I was suffering from very low energy, I had problems with my thyroid, weight gain, brain fog, hair loss, dry skin. I started his program immediately and I’m now in my 5th week and I’m feeling almost 100% better. I cannot thank him enough, I’m so grateful. My energy level is way better, my skin is better, my thyroid [symptoms] is under control, I’m almost off my medications and feel like my normal self. I sleep well, I’m actually losing weight so I’ve gained muscle, and I just feel overall 100% better. I’m so grateful to the doctor. I hope if you are thinking of coming here you will take Dr. Forman very seriously because I am very happy with the results. *

My name is William and I’ve been a patient of Dr. Forman for about 5 weeks now. I came here originally complaining about issues related to my blood pressure and blood sugar, lack of energy and some sinus problems. I’m happy to report that just a few weeks after coming here I noticed a considerable difference on those symptoms. I’m a lot happier and those numbers have gone down thanks to the knowledge I’ve gained here and the medication. It’s been a relatively easy program to stick to and again, I’m very thankful. *

Hi. My name is Kelly and this is Conner. Conner has been seeing Dr. Forman for about 4 months and he is completely healed in my eyes. He’s a happy baby now. No more congestion and bronchial issues like we had before. We both had had the same issues and I’ve been seeing Dr. Forman for about 9 months and once I started feeling a lot better I realized my son had the same issues and he needed to start going as well. As a mom, I feel really bad that my baby was on prednisone, nebulizers, and albuterol for pretty much the first 2 years of his life. And now, with Dr. Forman’s help, my baby is completely well. He has not been sick since he’s been seeing Dr. Forman. I feel like now, when he get’s a cold it won’t turn into something where he needs to go the doctor every time. He can have a cold like a normal child does. So, thank you Dr. Forman. And if I can just get through to one person, because I’m not a holistic person myself, to just try it to see what it can do for you and your family, please, please do so.

Hi. My name is Adriana Foster and I would like to make a testimonial for Dr. Forman. I’ve been in his program for 3 months and the difference between the person that I was when I first came here and the person I am now is huge. When I came here I was in a really, really bad place emotionally and physically. I felt really bad. I had really bad depression and anxiety. I can really say that is almost completely away, my life is back, I feel like I’m back on track, like I am back in the world and I can function. And I will always be grateful for that. It’s just totally worth it. So if you’re seeing this, listen, there’s a way out…Dr. Forman. Thank you. *
